In Ottoman script Turkish with Arabic letters and bilingual text in French and Ottoman Turkish on the cover. 4 p. Paul Lange was a German musician teacher orchestra and choir leader living and working in Istanbul. Lange "Europeanized" Turkish military music and was one of the pioneers to bring German and European classical music to the Ottoman capital in the years between 1880 and 1920. Lange was born in Kartzow Prussia the descendant of an old Prussian teacher family. He was trained at the teacher's college in Neuruppin to become a school teacher. He graduated from that college in 1879 with honors. Because of his high musical skills he was then admitted to the "Royal Academic Institute for Church Music" in Berlin where he received training as a church organist. In 1880 Lange moved to Constantinople where he assumed a position as a music teacher at the German School Alman Lisesi as well as organist of the Chapel of the German Embassy. Subsequently Lange also became a music teacher at various other institutes of higher education in Constantinople including several Greek and Armenian high schools lycées as well as American colleges such as Robert College and American College for Girls. Lange became a successful piano teacher and subsequently also formed his private conservatory which however had to declare bankruptcy after two years. He transformed an existing Italian orchestra into a large German-style symphony orchestra with which he conducted the first performances ever of Beethoven symphonies and Wagner operas in the Ottoman Empire with enormous success. Finally during his visit to Constantinople in 1898 Kaiser Wilhelm II who had already appointed him a "Kaiserlicher Musikdirektor" in 1894 became aware of Lange and helped him gain a position as head of a naval military orchestra of the Ottoman Navy. Subsequently he took over several other military ensembles before finally being appointed Director of the Sultan's music after the revolution in 1908. Since then Lange carried the Ottoman Court title "Bey". As a member of the Ottoman court Lange was allowed to stay in Istanbul by the Allied Military Administration when all other Germans and Austrians were deported from the city. When Lange died in Üsküdar Ottoman Empire in December 1919 he received a state funeral and the British Embassy chaplain performed the funeral at Feriköy Protestant Cemetery. However his widow and his youngest daughter who had stayed with him in Istanbul were deported to Germany only a few months later in May 1920. The German-American conductor Hans Lange assistant of Arturo Toscanini in New York City later conductor at the Chicago Symphony Orchestra best known for numerous recordings with the Wagner soprano Kirsten Flagstad was the oldest son of Paul Lange. Paul Lange was a close friend of fellow German lecturer Dr. Friedrich Schrader also a faculty member at Robert College in the 1890s. <br/> <br/> Imp. F. Loeffler., [ca. 1895] paperback
